Standing Desk Package in Rattan and Ash

A working setup in one delivery, sized for a sit and stand setup in a room where a full sized standing desk would take the whole wall. Everything is under 800mm wide and none of it looks like office furniture.

A package is cheaper than the pieces bought separately and, more usefully, it arrives in one delivery on one day. Furnishing a flat one item at a time from four different shops means four deliveries, four assembly sessions and four sets of packaging to get rid of, which in a flat with no garage is its own problem. Everything in a package is in the same material and the same finish batch, and it is all sized to work together in the floor area stated rather than simply to be small individually.

What you get

• One 800mm electric sit stand desk
• One 400mm mobile drawer unit
• One anti fatigue mat
• One 700mm narrow bookcase
• One monitor arm
• Cable trays, grommets and clips
• Felt pads on every foot
• One hex key and one spanner
• A layout sheet showing the cable runs, which is the part people get wrong

Assembly

Flat packed and best done by two people, mostly for the moment you stand it up. About an hour with a hex key and a spanner, both in the box. Fittings are cam locks and threaded steel inserts, so it comes apart and goes back together properly rather than chewing out the panel.

If you are renting

Freestanding, no wall fixing needed and no holes in anybody's plaster. An anti tip strap is in the box if you want it and there is nothing to make good if you never use it. Felt pads are fitted to every foot as standard, because the other way to lose a deposit is a scratch across a floor you did not lay.
